Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Garden Horizons and how to maximize your profits.
What is Garden Horizons?
Garden Horizons is a Roblox game where you plant, grow, and sell plants to earn in-game currency (Shillings). The goal is to maximize your profits by choosing the right plants and timing your harvests.
What do the growth stages mean?
There are three growth stages:
• **Unripe (0.5x)**: Plant is not fully grown - you'll lose 50% of potential value
• **Ripened (1x)**: Plant is ready to harvest - full base value
• **Lush (1.5x)**: Plant is fully mature with bonus - highest value (requires staying online during growth)
How do mutations work?
Mutations are special bonuses that multiply your plant's sell value. Some mutations are:
• **Stackable**: Can combine with other stackable mutations
• **Exclusive**: Only one non-stackable mutation can apply at a time
Mutations trigger randomly during gameplay (weather events, rare spawns, etc.).
What is ROI and why does it matter?
ROI (Return on Investment) shows how much profit you make relative to your initial cost. Formula: `(Sell Price - Cost) / Cost × 100%`. A higher ROI means more efficient use of your money.
What is Profit Per Hour?
Profit per hour calculates how much you earn factoring in grow time. It's crucial for short play sessions - a plant with high ROI but long grow time might earn less per hour than a faster plant.
Should I wait for Lush stage?
Generally yes! Lush stage gives 50% bonus over ripened. However, if you're about to log off or the grow time is very long, you might want to harvest at ripened to start your next cycle.

We use a confidence system:
• **A (Green)**: High trust - verified through 3+ tests
• **B (Yellow)**: Medium trust - 1-2 tests
• **C (Red)**: Initial data - needs community verification
